Wow so what's the beginning of just seen a poem I thought I'll just state this to begin that couch I yaar me who got Camus roof a Tawaf dil agar see me me Jota - director hahahaha which means that it must be some way busy doing Tawaf like the wolf at the house or the place the abode of the
beloved people of the beloved Allah that if the heart was in my chest it ought to be beating I just went on Facebook I just saw that straightaway I thought what the hell let's share that first to begin then I can share the life right right where are we there is I'm just sharing it
and that awry in al hamdulillah wa kafa while salat wa salam o allah rasool mustafa ala i body ladina table all my mom be hotel method or be a sari Almudena dr. fellow bad for Salam Allahu Allah ohno-san become a marhaban running lights bienvenidos a todos people and of course of course maggot on swagatam people swagatam right let's let me just bring my drinks closer the most important thing to have your
drinks once the drinks are all sorted I guess it's all good all right so you know as as the poet said that nasha nasha rob me adopt or not steep water do you think so that if the intoxication was in the actual drink
then the bottle ought to be intoxicated meaning it's all it's all in us people it's all in the mind it's all in the mind it's all in the mind that's it that's the where can you have a nick away the woman has a close friend as a woolly and not a family member of course you can of course of course Claro que si Claro que si right of course people I've got a whole session
which is I mean a whole segment on YouTube about a woolly is a guardian necessary for Annika where I go through the whole breakdown and I show that that this hadith is not sahi the one that learning a high level e is an unacceptable hadith it's so I've got the whole breakdown on YouTube you can watch it there I go through the chains and everything so is it permissible to join the British army right it is permissible to join the British Army however I'd like to add a
caveat Allah because you see me as a whole I am kind of my understanding is a bit anti-war and anti [Music] and actually I'll add to this discussion later on as well when I speak of the whole India indo-pak war scenario going on but you see to me soldiers are quite often just exploited people the individuals who are dumb down and exploited and I say dumb down not to
mean that they're dumb they're not dumb they're incredibly courageous people and brave but they are dumbed down by the institution of the military in order to use them just as as kind of robotic automatons and just pawns for them to say shoot kill strike and that's all they do you know we hear and we obey and they're not allowed to really think you're not allowed to be a conscientious objector you're not allowed to if you
are drafted to war and if that war is deemed unjust in your own thinking in your cognitive capacity you should have the right to object and to refuse to participate I believe that firmly so and I as far as my understanding unless the law is now different if you join the military I don't think especially in England I don't think you have that right to object oh I don't I mean maybe you can speak to them because that's something I'm against I feel that human beings
should always have the right to express themselves and if they disagree with something it cannot be imposed upon them so that's my point of contention that said it's fine to join the British Army there's nothing it's not like joining the British Army's Haram my in fact it's absolutely fine but the question would come - what if they are out on an exploitative element and you do have the right to object or must you participate - so you can find out by asking them I'm not exactly sure
what the what the specifics on that are right alongside and become people along with salmon what is going on what is going on I'll let some of you tune in click like click share all right the hammer is in the house Thomas Allen hammer doing it dune who else people whilst others are tuning in since there's some questions behind
right I'm just trying to do you approach the hadith of Abu Huraira what about joining the British Army as a dentist whoa like would that even be a question like why is that bothersome in any way of course you can join the British Army as a dentist I'm saying you can join the actual army you can participate and you can I was just saying that I feel not from a religious perspective but my own
personal perspective that I would just have that kind of that caveat in saying that do you have the right to be a conscientious objector if you are drafted or do you have no choice I don't know the specifics on that with the army so you can enquire with them I feel if you have no choice then to me that is quite a regardless of what whether it's the military or anything I feel that that is an oppressive element okay so I'm not sure
what the current rules and laws and regulations standards but you can find out right so once you're all cheering mustard Mohammed along silent allah wa salim become people a hell of a lots been going on this last week what has been first of all before any of them for anything else and you explained the mention of gog and magog yeah you can glogg him my GOG I've explained that previously in much detail it is
available on YouTube as a segment but briefly I'll explain that these things are mentioned in the Quran nobody is to show what gog and magog it's not you know this gog and magog is the biblical term and people ain't even sure what the biblical term means in the quran it's ya jus jamaat jooge and nobody's really sure what that means in the Quran in Georgia were mad George the huge of being problematic okay that they have caused calamities on the earth and a lot of states that and as time goes by that
yet you Jam attitudes will you know mean could Lee had opinions alone and that they all everywhere in khaosan but what does this mean and what are ya do to Madrid and then there's just the worlds of world of made-up stories that people have thrown in thee nobody truly knows what yet you Jamaat yuge mean in the Quran when the term appears just like in the Bible Gog and Magog nobody is really too sure what gog and magog mean there is a reference to them in the Old Testament and then there is a reference
to them I believe in the Gospel of John is it but in the New Testament this is a reference as well I believe it's in the Book of Revelations now gog and magog in the New Testament are not the Gog and Magog of the Old Testament that the biblical scholars are very clear about okay that what seems to be mentioned as Gog and Magog in the New Testament is not the same reference to Gog and Magog in the Old Testament so you even the biblical scholars are being very clear that these things do not mean the same thing that is being mentioned over there
and Gog and Magog in the old British myths is not what is meant by the by the New Testament or the Old Testament so Gog and Magog in the old myths of the of the British kind of Isles is that they used to be some kind of great Giants and that roam the British Isles and and then [Music] you had certain whatever people came over that kind of finished them and killed them off and then this became
this land became conquered and they killed off Gog and Magog and but those Gog and Magog of that myth or not the Gog and Magog of the Old Testament or the New Testament who by the way are not the Gog and Magog of the Quran so this is all chaos and the only thing you've got there is the same word and nobody believes that these are the other things okay this seems to be a word that people seem to have been using when referring to extreme chaos whether it was a myth
or whether it was in reality okay so in the in the Book of Revelations when they speaking of the apocalypse and the whole apocalyptic kind of chaos that will engulf the world and this mention of Gog and Magog appears they're quite timely the same thing in the it seems to be in reference to some phenomenon of chaos from yeoju from like how flames kind of fly up and and this is so it's not a even the Arabic doesn't seem to make sense it's not like a
regular Arabic term yet jujin much so people have disagreed what is what did it mean some people have said it meant some kind of alien species like these kind of creatures that and there's no real evidence to prove any of that but it's an interesting theory if it's aliens others in the past have said it was maybe the Mongols interesting I think and as certain people have said as well in the past that it referred to and that's also share Saudi in his reseller
and not so much in his stuff see but in his reseller rights that they were the colonialists and colonialism the way it suddenly engulfed [Music] right sorry just one moment people one moment on just two seconds
right oh right that was an emergency oh but anyway all under control it's under control yeah under control right so right so I'll have to get that part edited right now this whole yeah - Djem attitude seems to be chaotic in my understanding I go with what chefs are D AB Dorfman sadi had said that it was the colonialists and I think somebody said
allow the girls is that what you think preoccupies matter but or they also a form of the a jujin matsujun right so it could be the trials of men the trials of men but so now that's what I kind of go with that it is colonialism people right so arrive Mubeen I'm
honored top fun award people Facebook is giving top fun badges alright that's what we're talking about you doing it you're doing it ma much love to all of you right especially those of you with the badges you're doing it you're doing it somebody saying is that a is that a is that one of those calls during my life yeah yeah look would you bashed it hey yeah they don't even let me do a live it can't be Monday hi only one of
me Kaka room Baba right cell chef Ahmed thought you described polygamy as an injustice to women huh injustice to women that's only if you don't know how to love properly maybe when some people doing it they doing it as an injustice but when some people doing it they doing it as an an act of
of of just love for mankind you know this you know one day one day he bottled here you know it depends on the person I suppose share that Mathare you've described polygamy is an injustice to it yeah cueing justice yeah spread the love it no the polygamy huh polygamy polygamy so have we finished on first of all yeah do Jamaat Jews in case people think the topic is kind of intertwined and now yeah jujin Matthew John other wives
surrounding a person he's like oh my god they're from from every Yadu Jamaat yuge right so the rights okay so that's answer that polygamy what do we think of polygamy look I think these things each to their own I don't think we should as adults interfere in other adults personal relationships so long as things are by mutual consent so long as they are I'm not saying that people should do polygamy I'm not saying they shouldn't I'm not saying anything
Marik Apple you know people will do what they want to do they're not gonna say oh what does Mufti Abu layth have to say about this so and neither are they gonna say well I wonder what by your have mercy of us to say look I think one thing I would say is that things like plural relationship personally they are probably a headache that - like a migraine one so they're not like headaches of like a small this isn't just your regular kind of paracetamol case I'm sure
it must be like of a severe either like it begins with a severe migraine and the spectrum goes up to like a tumor level [Laughter] that's what I'm sure multiple marriages must be like but that said if people want to embark on them and people are happy to be a part of them now live and let live but you see that said I think that they should be transparency one thing they shouldn't be this is very clear one thing they shouldn't be is a kind of they should not be any
exploitative deception in that sense that this kind of misleading people and what's a good word for it but like I've I've come across cases where people will you know they'll have these kind of misleading or secret marriages that will be completely built on lies and I think that kind of stuff is wrong categorically I'm against that kind of stuff I think people if they are going to embark on whatever relationship they're gonna embark on they should just
embark on it on like I understand that look everybody they you know when they're building up relationships not everybody but a lot of people there's an element of these are like like a kind of persona that people put on a face that maybe aside of them that they like people to see and I'm sure everybody does things like that and there may be some elements of if we can call them white lies or things like this and and you know I'm not here to to judge people and that's not what I'm talking about I'm talking about where there's outright damning kind of deception and so
somebody will be married for example and he'll be misleading some woman let's say I've come across cases who is not interested in marrying him if he's married but he will then pretend he's not married just to kind of get married to this woman too and then she's found out later on that this person's Marie these kind of things are wrong I think people should just be there should be a level kind of plain people shouldn't if they are going to embark on these relationships they should be transparency and then it's up to them you understand and that said if
if either people obviously the husband but the wife if she was if she was not happy let's say in any situation especially in these situations even if it wasn't these situations but if she was not happy she has the absolute categorical right to leave that relationship or tell him that look I'm not happy with this as it is either this or I'm out and she has that right and men do not have the right to control women and they do not have the right to kind of say well you know you can leave
this relationship if I'm okay with it you're not in charge like that okay so just to be very clear on that okay so if people do embark because I've come across so many cases where people have had multiple relationships as in plural kind of relief so they've had more than one spouse and in some cases the wives have been kind of okay with it in other cases they have it and if they haven't been okay they've said on many cases that if that's what you're gonna do then I'm out and she has the right to be out then and the guy can't hold her hostage
to that relationship okay just being very clear and she has the right if either he's going to amicably they're going to be out oh she can she will apply for a thalaaq and she will get that Turlock it's very clear right so this misunderstanding that some men have that they think they can hold the women hostage in relationships you can't and that would be Haram to do that okay so because you would be causing harm so very clear that's my kind of stance on things so I very like I believe that we should be micromanaging people's relationships but I do believe
that people should have a sense of maturity in their relationships so people to their own age - you know people do their own widget they don't need to run it past others if they're happy with it that's all that counts that's all that matters but at the same time you Carnac you can't kind of hold people hostage okay so that's I just want to be very clear on that point okay right so can you talk about the of rice so people right coming I want to mention this you know Eli
chi-chi people alike GJ Allah that's not what I want to mention what I wanted to speak mention is that I've been on this DNA thing that I told you before and I had some feedback and I was curious about the whole anthropological makeup and everything and I've spoken about that in the past right but through the DNA and being on the website whoa a pleasant people and oh what an absolute overwhelmingly pleasant surprise was I
was I came across my long-lost aren't ya Salam who is Irish so she's my mom's sister a half-sister now she didn't was completely kind of disconnected since birth really and and although she's been on a long search to reconnect with the family reconnect I mean my grandfather has passed he's passed a few decades a couple of decades ago but she'd been on
a like a very lengthy search spanning several decades to reconnect with her family and and it's only when I took the DNA that it kind of connected us they found an immediate kind of and we've been in touch since then this has been for almost a month now something like that or probably no actually over a month probably about just under two months so we've been in touch and chatting and a lot of kind of verifying a lot of information and finding out and and then we've realized
oh my god everything adds up not just the DNA but everything and that's been very it's been awesome it's been surreal so this we've been planning and this last weekend they've been over here they've they've kind of flown over from island island people the whole family so we've had them over it's been amazing overwhelming reconnecting getting to learn about each other and and see it so that that's an amount and then I suppose my cousin's I wish Irish cousins people
but it's been amazing and I gotta say that wow it's uh it's it's it's actually quite surreal it's not something that you hear of every day or that you think happens in real life but it does then hamdulillah but it's been an amazing imams being very happy about the whole situation and very kind of but it's been an amazing time it's also allowed us to kind of rekindle that whole discovery about my grandparents and the whole
family thing and and really learn a lot more and it's been amazing somebody said your grandfather was my grandfather he was a legend that's all I can say all I can say I think what gave you know one other thing since we were growing up that grandfather my maternal we always we always knew that he he was a legend as it was but by the time we were growing up his his heydays had kind of long been and he was he was like really ill at that stage of life and he'd had a stroke and he kind of become really
debilitated so we never got to see him in his hay days we only heard about him and you know through some of even the pictures and nice to see that he he had a tattoo you see on his forehead you know the the the crescent and the star and just his style and the whole approach we knew he was a legend as it was and he'd been somebody who lived in Birmingham from in the UK from the 60s and great man of great courage and great strength and great kind of week so we always kind of ride alized him anyway as so he was weird we heard all these
incidents about him so he pre partition of Pakistan India was somebody in the Army and and that too of great skill and there was like certain stories like a story that he was on a particular occasion that when he was in one of those with the army they had a one of the battles he was actually shot I think on his leg or something but he walked like so many miles but he had to actually had come across one of his own relatives who was in the army with him that had had been killed in action so he died it was shot and had been killed so he actually carried his body as well and took it right back for the janazah and
burial and so these can you know it was a legend may Allah rest his soul in peace but yes so obviously these were his Irish connections Wonka bar though let know weed and I'm sure he was a very charming man so so this is his his daughter my mom's half-sister but anyway that's an amazing thing I did say I'll speak about that I mentioned that but I think it's amazing and it reminds me of the verse in the Quran that Allah says that look we created you from a single
page means academia onca wanna come sure Obama Kaaba hill and we made you so many different people like different tribes or different clans or different sorrowful so that you may get to know one another and this getting to know one another is an amazing kind of process really so I I think it's it's something amazing really to reconnect and to do things like that so science huh science somebody said you don't look
very I'm not Irish although actually the DMA did say that 13.5 percent or whatever was Irish Scottish well but that was nothing to do with this connection this is her mom was Irish not my granddad right so she was Irish and obviously then the daughter is half Irish half Pakistani I guess right so see yourself leaving Islam in the future could I ever see myself leaving Islam in the future what are not questions I
don't see myself leaving Islam in the future obviously look faith is you know there's two things one we don't know the future about anything and two these things are always from a faith perspective up to a lava I don't believe that to me Islam makes a lot of sense it is something that makes sense for somebody like me it does make sense I do see as built upon reason unlike other people so and if I saw Islam to be unreasonable and if I believed it was unreasonable I wouldn't be a part of it
but I believe it to be reasonable I believe it to be built on reason I believe it to have strengthened my life in so many ways that you know I and I kind of believe that God you know watches over me in that as I'm sure all of you believe as well or hope many of you on here but I believe about my my own life and my own journey and you know it says holidays in his I
have that as a poem written on you know in my living room downstairs on the wall frame that that couplet of Hollywood where he says zindagi apne Java shakaal Seco sorry Holly hum be cured Karenga ke who directed that you know having seen all the vicissitudes the ups and downs and the the stages that life has taken us through all we can say Holly is that God favored us you know it's like and I really as a person and each person can
only do this for themselves like I can't do this for you but if you reflect you will see that resonate that that kind of you know that that touch of God watching over me that you know in your life all the tiny blessed from the tiny blessings to the amazing overwhelming blessings that you've had in your life and I'm sure that if you think about them would they would there's so many but they there's things that will you think that wow that you know Eve had have I even planned this it couldn't have worked out
so well now I remember you know when I you know before I went to study when I was just about seventeen I began working in in an Islamic bookstore in Birmingham I used to work for I had a job as and I had finished college because the college degree it wasn't a degree but it was the NVQ qualifications the way we had them is as soon as you finish your portfolio you finished the course so it doesn't have to run for two years it could be done in two years or one year or one and a half years soon as so once I finished
that I was working in an insurance brokerage but then once as I got more and more infatuated with the Dean I left work in an Islamic bookshop it was Islamic vision those of you that remember it was that it was in Birmingham in small Heath and the place now it was I DCI but it was the old kind of shop the AK medida thing but there that gave me access to a lot of Islamic books and lectures as well but I remember at the time there was this when I got more serious in in the months that were coming at that time and I wanting
to study the Deen I I took a book by and I met the author later on by the way in years to come Ahmed Thompson amazing person but this book I took this book of his called the difficult journey and in it it's it's basically a book about I mean I read this back then in the 90s you know if mom if I if I mess up the narrative it's you know I can be excused it's been so long but it's basically about these guys who want to go on hatch
and what they do is they do it a complete kind of like they just like just go on a mission like they want to go by Road and just they have very little like means they don't have much money they don't have many like they don't know how whether it's gonna happen or not and and I think it's based in the it's real life events my Thompson is a Muslim from I believe Norwich oh he may have been from London he's a convert to Islam and he may have been I don't know whether it was a lawyer or something but he had a professional background so he sets off on this journey and they just have
something like a few pounds and they traveled somewhere to Europe and and they're just kind of grafting and they're getting from A to B to C and and the paths are just like there's a point where I think they land in Egypt or something and it's almost impossible but they get away with it and and I remember reading this before I went to study and at the time I would just carry this book with man I was reading through it and I drew so much inspiration not so much about the actual they were going to do Hajj I was obviously thinking I'm going to study but of the fact that God works in you
know in in amazing ways and there was a line from that book where he says that you know when he's reminiscing about everything how it kind of unfolded and he said that you know if I own the whole universe I couldn't have planned it as perfectly as it happened like the way God designed it to unfold I couldn't have done that if I had complete control over everything I I still it wouldn't have been as perfect as amazing I don't that's what I mean by perfect obviously there's problems and that really struck
me that that phrase that sentence that this this meaning that he was conveying in the book and I gotta say and I I drew courage from me and I went off because I was only young I was just seventeen just going on 18 and I went off to study and I have to say my own life the way things have have mapped out have unfolded and and it's not to say that they this been you know major problems and things like that all along the way but still the way things have happened I have to say that it's it's been you know it's amazing how
Allah has been there and I'm sure that's the same with with with you guys as well if you think about it and it's not to mean that don't mean for I don't mean by that for a second that it was easy that there were a lot of difficulties you know when I went off or even in life in general whether it was the struggles whether it was at times finances or health or falling ill or being stranded or just facing you know resistence facing hardship facing people who are awkward I mean all of these things you know facing hitting
mental block you know there was a time when I was trying to memorize the Quran and I remember I was on I think juice eleven and I hit mental block I just no matter what I did it just was not happening and I remember it like it went on for a week and but it was debilitating at the time but then hamdulillah I got over it but it does what I'm trying to say is it doesn't matter what it was that you get through it you understand that you know that kind of emotion that will the one thing that people underestimate the human will to
kind of persevere like in the in the poem that just by dilgar Mitra her cheese mockable agile man silkily a dog on channel or some name until a guy that you know if that he says that this the passion of the heart that if I that if that is if the heart is determined the will to get something then the destination will be in front of you that all you have to do is take two steps and it will automatically things will just you know the path the way will just open
up for you so yeah so I for me this relationship with allies very personal one it's not something that you know it's not something which is built on superstition it's not something which is just built on like because I was born a Muslim in that sense so it is a very personal relationship it's something and it's like any journey it's a turbulent from this side it's obviously you know being human we're gonna be they were far you know we're not gonna be loyal that's
the human human hallmark is being unloyal and i think on so many occasions I've personally I would say I've been like that I've been very rebellious in that sense towards you know if I can say have the audacity to say towards God even you know it's been a very and it still is or as always but still and that's the amazing thing that it doesn't matter sometimes as much as I've rebelled sometimes even against God in that
understanding if I can use these terms but yet you still you know it doesn't matter ain't no matter look that wherever you then turn fourth on my watch hole then you still find Allah they you still find that things come together and and that is amazing you know I've at times tried to test things and I've tried and I'm sure other people have done it too and even test with reason you understand like certain arguments and take them but it's amazing how it you know each time it's it's
never kind of folded it never so you know this is a very intimate kind of relationship I feel and and and I advise everybody to have their own personal relationship with God like that I don't think you know it's not for me like everybody's different you see like I'm I don't consider myself to be like a very kind of that kind it depends what you mean by religious but that like I don't pray really enough or things like Bailey just the oblique Bailey just the fara if I don't keep voluntary fasts and I don't
do things like that I mean I'm just being honest but and maybe some people they cut out like that they do things like that but I do enjoy the the tradition of Islam I enjoy like I don't just enjoy you know it's not just mellow Stites macadam encanta you know I loved it the whole I'm overwhelmed by the beam on that level in that capacity and how just the message it gives of humanity and then pondering over it to me that's my kind of thing and I try to you see one thing I try to
is to have a clean heart I mean it's never gonna be totally clean obviously the Pakistani gene will always be influencing the corruption but it's you know I try to that to have that compassion towards humanity and I think that what could be greater than that you know and to me that is like one of the greatest messages of this theme you know there's a poet NIDA I think NIDA Fazli who said in one of his poems he said
something half it's kind of high it doesn't come clearly to mind but in there the message he says that you know he says today we made a child laugh like say say but Jayco has had the art and and he says like what is and he says I can't think of any act of worship greater than that and and that resonates with me you see so so this is I think it's an important message it for people in a time where they're becoming confounded by a lot of doubt surrounding
religion that religion faith is not in the legal edicts of the clergy faith is what resides in your heart in your connection in you in your understanding that Allah is there for you in your time of me that solace that you find in that motivation to be there for Humanity in to give in charity in to help and to make someone smile that is really faith it's not in the legal edicts of the mula the clergy Zoar and and I'm not I'm not
belittling the kind of photography ously I'm a part of that tradition I love that tradition but that is not where you will what will firm establish you of Iman that will just you know that's just fun you know it's fun to learn that's all it is so I hope that of some some maybe maybe so hearing these words it resonates with some people and it gives them some maybe some inspiration in trouble Mufti do you
know that you are an ant P I'm an ant I'm an ant a cha cha cha but like the one that was communicating with Solomon ELISA Lam no I'm joking I know you're talking about the personality types I've forgotten what what it said I was I did post it on Facebook a while back as somebody said folding the sleeve or trousers in Salah now none of these things are necessary
it's all cool you don't need to fold the you know this sleeve folding of the trousers what is this nonsense I mean it doesn't you know people say like oh you must do it for Salah the rulings got nothing to do with Salah the ruling was there in general and it's doesn't have any relevance in this day and age because nobody walks around dragging the bloody sarong just to fold up your trousers makes you look silly I mean unless you're a hipster but yeah so drinking tea like the Indian
pipe yes people we got to talk about that in a moment the whole the whole pilot thing the india-pakistan thing I did you know I have my book where I make notes sometimes of certain things for the Monday nights and I'm bloody I don't think Lailah just picked it up and put it somewhere god damn this is the tragedy people of other people touching your stuff you can't so but I did there were some notes I will speak about the hospital hind' and we got to speak
about India Pakistan and the whole what else is there got to speak about there are some questions on that was sent in but I will check as well any any questions being posted live people so I'll tell you what should we get onto this Pakistan thing India Pakistan what's going on let me just also open up there right India Pakistan people yeah look at her haha what is going on it was
going mad oh my god oh my god people if you've missed this you have almost missed you just missed an early apocalypse the world could have come to an end people honestly and I don't say that it met me it could have actually we could have been on route set on a kind of path to the apocalypse and I'm not joking seriously because these are two both our reason I mean both are an emotional country and both are nuclear
strong so those of you that don't know they they both went loggerheads at each other India Pakistan and we almost had we did have a momentary outbreak of a war over there but it was contained al hamdulillah and I did make some posts on it and some people and many people applauded my posts and some people did get offended now I do have a lot of friends through social media who are in India who are
Hindustani and I love them all I love India a Hindustan I have no issues with India obviously I'm of Pakistani descent but that doesn't make a difference you know what was all of this about let me give you a backdrop people right now those of you that remember they'd been a pole Amma attack a place in Kashmir a military kind of convoy or something got bombed by a suicide bomber carrying
350 kilograms of explosives which is like how the hell was he carrying in a highly militarized zone with anything between 7 to 12 intense checkpoints militarized checkpoints so it's not a huge place it's a small place with several other minor checkpoints but between 7 to 12 intense militarized checkpoints so how did a car manage to
get through these carrying 350 kilograms of bloody explosives not like hey like something the size of that 350 kilos but somehow it did later on emerges as the Indian opposition parties have highlighted that Modi the Prime Minister of Pakistan his administration and intelligence were aware of this attack something like eight days prior to it happening because they have they've shared some they've leaked some information saying that they were
actually aware and they allowed it to go on because it would then create a kind of war atmosphere which could be kind of deflected towards Pakistan you could blame Pakistan now because in India people hate Pakistan this may unify the country behind Modi who has an election coming up a general election in two months time and therefore he may be voted in usual politic tactics you see it in America with the Bush administration you see these people whenever whenever they are about to go down I know
let's have war you've seen in house of cards people those of you stopped watching once Kevin once the main character was out but the point is this is politics that goes on all the time now Modi did that as well so next thing you know he made a speech saying right we know within within I think five to ten minutes they announced this was Pakistan the him ounce this was Pakistan
that was behind this no detailed investigation to straight away they did it then more they made a speech that we will retaliate we will take serious action we will boycott we will internationally isolate and we will come we will conduct a surgical strike snarl jiggles right a surgical strike means we're going to basically attack some part of Pakistan we're gonna send in some commandos or Oh basically some of our military to conduct an operation within Pakistani soil I mean how can you announce something like that that's just
taking them meek that's the next lift that this is why you realize that level of confidence that Indians some Indians some Indians have when they send those Facebook messages a cha-cha-cha this is where the confidence comes from we're going to attack so Pakistan is as one of the most amazing militaries in the world people now they obviously were on alert but Indian Army they last week they sent in some fighter jets okay that came into
Azad Kashmir which is the Pakistan side of cush me they came flew in then they were detected by the radar now the Pakistani army kind of chased him off and as they set off they let go you know released all the fuel and over a certain amount of their fuel and also the bombs in order to flee faster now they landed on a forest and the Indian media people if you ever want to watch what to two hundred percent propaganda looks like you have to see some of these
Indian media channels they kill it say that way they do it like oh you know like now that they released these bombs they just announced we did a surgical strike we killed three to four hundred militant extremists we killed him at Qatari team a amar a bubbly they went in bunker are they were you know being so often Fadi Halak and the way they do it all the news channels its Pakistan right
said look first of all Pakistan kind of conducted an investigation to see what the damage was and then personally this is my analysis I think Pakistan may have not retaliated if India didn't overdo it with the chest beating oh so multi kind of went out all out more they kind of took some cocaine and he was just all out he was making his public speeches we did this everybody raise your hands in
the air we are like his speeches were mad the media channels were going mad saying we show Pakistan anytime we have an issue with Pakistan this is how we'll deal with the surgical strike and it's so irresponsible how the pack the Indian celebrities have behaved some of them I'm so disappointed in people like I mean I just Dave can I'm he does this kind of stuff anyways very kind of Pro very anti Pakistan but I was disappointed in Akshay Kumar because in the past he's been quite neutral to be
fair and and he said girl my goose came out I won't go and you think what the hell but anyway Pakistan had to retaliate so Pakistan retaliated people Allah and did they retaliate I tell they seriously dealt with them I mean on the borders they and so many other and you know the Pakistan media has been really calm and they haven't been exposing what they've been doing only a small percentage and Pakistan keeps saying oh we want peace we want peace but they really dealt with them and they sent him they sent him their fighter
jets the jf-17 thunder which is a Pakistani made fighter plane people third generation and sent them in and then they brought learning the Indian pilots and then shot them down and there's certain things on social media saying that Pakistan destroyed some military compounds or something in Kashmir or they attack something which they're not opening up to they're not admitting because Pakistan in the public media has not been really it's been kind of saying now we haven't done much it's like one of those now we're only talking
no we just want to talk now we're being really friendly yeah we don't want to fight that's how the Pakistan Army is being kind of like it's like look guys we are here we want peace we're not doing it that's how it's me so they've on the media they've been showing that now we're not doing anything we're not doing now that they got hold of the pilots they release the pilot goodwill gesture the world recognized it and one
awesome thing that's happened out of all of this is that Imran Khan explained that we have no issue with India the only issue is Kashmir that the problems the heart of the problem is Kashmir he brought the issue of Kashmir to to the attention of the international media and I have to say that is an amazing thing he's done so maybe for once there may be some resolution to this Kashmir matter which is serious and I think that's an awesome thing in Ron Kahn has done after that they was going to there was some
serious danger posed on Pakistan with India in the days that followed two-three days is setup its missile its missiles and the intelligence was that it was going to strike maybe three air bases in Pakistan or three cities this was the Pakistani intelligence so that was an incredibly tense time really because if they had struck with missiles because some people are saying they were gonna strike Lahore cial court and maybe
Karachi if they had struck Pakistan the Pakistani army did state that we would have retaliated three times as much that would have been a full-fledged war they would have been no coming back from that people right and if that had happened you see Pakistan it will would have resulted you know if cities got destroyed like if they not just borders we're talking about them striking a city
right you have to remember that some people were saying India is economically far more equipped like saris economically far more stable it is but it relies on those cities remember cities like Bangalore which are the IT capital of India Pakistan had stated that it would have one missile aimed straight at Bangalore it would have had like you see it would have been crazy and I could serious unfortunately see that have resulting in maybe even a nuclear war Pakistan has in its in the
sea one of its naval ships carry and nuclear missile a potential new missile called barber which is has the capacity to carry a nuclear warhead and that can be aimed at any major city throughout India and it's a it's a smart kind of missile that it can dodge anti-missile missile kind of rockets and he can kind of go over things and under things and that people that it would have been the end of the world I'm serious Pakistan has up to anything between 130 to 150 nuclear warheads
India has something like 120 and certain nuclear reactions can detonate other nuclear reactions and these are not like the Hiroshima and Nagasaki kind of bombs just the fission these are like the fusion fission fusion these are the bombs are you cannot even imagine the damage they can cause and if so many of them detonate in a part of the globe and they trigger nuclear chain reactions it can actually shake the earth off its axis it's so powerful these nuclear bombs they're not like this isn't something you know this
isn't just child's play this is the fate of humanity could be impacted by these two nuclear war countries going to war it's not it is this is the most volatile border on the face of the earth people as we know it so it was an immensely tense time last week because Pakistan had you know Pakistan's intelligence is one of ISI are one of the leading intelligence ears in the world and they had intelligence that India was going to attack by missile and I think it was a great thing they did is they they released this
information to the media because once you release it you see it's very difficult that they're gonna do it now because they said that you know an Iran concept that there was there's intelligence that India are planning a missile attack on one of our cities or on at least one of our cities and then India said aw what nonsense and the unfortunate thing is that the intelligence here the is I said that it's actually a coordinated effort with Israeli intelligence in India and you know even Robert Fisk had an whole article saying that there are Israeli fingerprints all over this Indian War
that is happening and you know it's such a shocking really but alhamdulillah Pakistan it seems to have immensely disc escalated now Pakistan did an amazing goodwill gesture and I think they've really you know kick the BA in the process and showed them that you can't actually mess with Pakistan and I'm I'm really glad that they did you know I I am absolutely against war but I feel if India did these surgical strikes they need it to be taught a lesson because you can't just let them keep you know continuously
do things like this you know just do surgical strikes in your country and I'd you know people some people said that oh you know you over Pakistan and this and that and and one thing I realized the media is so biased against Pakistan a Mary case with India UK supporting India on this France is heavily supporting India the BBC the reporting's I was watching it are so biased I was shocked our biased they were and it's just disappointing so this whole thing but yeah Pakistan still emerged as
the kind of victor a won the war of perception anyway worldwide and it kicked some serious butt in the process and something India seems to forget is that the Indian army people is not actually a tested army like the Indian Army hasn't actually fought and you know somebody made a comment on one of my posts saying you see you the Indian Army has a larger weaponry Arsenal and larger military personnel and that is true so the Indian and Pakistan Pakistan Army is at a 2 to 3 ratio with India so it's that's the ratio of its
personnel and its people it has Pakistan has over 600,000 people in its active army and 500,000 on reserve so it ranks number sixth on the world's largest army but that said India has a larger army it has something like not just 600 it has either nine hundred thousand or a million in its active personnel but India is so large I mean Pakistan's only 20% almost of India it is so large as a country and then they're so divert divided because
they've got a lot of fronts to be on but the army isn't actually tested they haven't actually fought any wars and you see this is the mistaken this is the same mistake that America made because America has the most leading technology in the world the military kind of capabilities it's smart bombs its aircrafts aircrafts it's kind of the guns and everything and you look at it like the Taliban who are like basically like to them they like cavemen you know they like people running around with an
ak-47 and I'm just wearing shalwar kameez and a turban you know I mean like what are they completely like you look at the military personnel then the leading Army in the world when it comes to technology right but they not a tested army you see the American army I aren't used to fighting they don't actually go out and fight wars I mean in Iraq the Iraqi army just just gave in they just kind of didn't fight them so that's not really just now when they were tested in Afghanistan they got their butt kicked because they can't they couldn't even fight the bloody
Taliban 17 years and oh they're having to have a dialogue in in Doha with them in Qatar but why because you you can't win the war against Taliban you've got a bunch of basically disorganized you know Afghans running around in mountains and you can't beat them with the world's most equipped technology because you're not attested on me you haven't actually fought wars and this is the same thing with India where as Pakistan army fought in the Russia Afghan war if fought against the
Russians right for over a decade then it fought or again he participated in Afghanistan with those who horse and it's been fighting the internal terrorism it's been fighting now you see when you have a tested fighter somebody who's actually fought and if somebody who just knows theory it's not gonna stand like it's not really a so this is something this is one of the reasons why whenever India goes up against Pakistani gets its butt kicked is because it's not actually equipped on the ground it doesn't have any experience in actually fighting so yeah anyway and and I think
some some people got offended when I was saying these you know made a post and they said well you know Mufti you're usually the voice of reason but here you're kind of biased because you're Pakistani look it is true that I am yeah obviously I'm gonna be biased like that but I try to be as fair as possible and India did start this war Moody that's the administration looked as many people in India who are against this war who are against the more the administration who say this is propaganda but the truth is they started it and they got their
butt kicked and they and they deserved it okay because you know you can't be a bully right that's what they were doing they were being bullies okay so that is unacceptable and I'm glad that like Stan dealt with them now the other thing is Pete somebody asked a question that look Musti you're not mentioning anything about the terrorists kind of organizations in Pakistan like Jay che Mohammed now I want to highlight that look today actually as we speak today Pakistan has announced Imran Khan announced for their to be active
operations led against any kind of militia operating within Pakistan like Jesse Mohammed or less cared about anybody like them they already prescribed organizations they already banned for many years but look I want to say something look listen people you know these kind of jihadi organizations yeah they look they are a problem in Pakistan okay Pakistan has you know Pakistan is like in a like a mesh and amalgamation of very different kind of people it's like an American look America has some
people who are the most the leading humanists on this globe right right some Americans are like leading on humanism on human rights on all kinds of Rights they are the pioneers on this globe some some Americans and then you get some Americans who are like redneck kind of completely hillbillies like you're gonna have complete opposite ends and Pakistan is the same like Pakistan you will get these nutcase extremists movies you will get some of these people like in the
hacia bBK's they just you know become a more balloon cavemen like you get that and then you will get some people who are so intelligent in impact and intelligence is of different kinds by the way you're gonna get like obviously emotional intelligence creative intelligence and there is that as well but like this there's a kind of like a Machiavellian kind of intelligence which is like a kind of survival intelligence that you know to kind of outdo the other in your survival and I think there's
several Pakistanis who are so gifted with this that in this kind of almost like that kind of deceptive intelligence and and the IRA and the interesting thing is that cycle says into one of the theories the intelligence hypothesis is that it developed in outmaneuvering the opponent that's how intelligence was formed as an act of survival and I think on these things bikes there's some Pakistanis who are so on it you know in a in a like chalahe kind of way that they are like this kind of conniving and this is why the ISI is so
one of the leading intelligence things in the world intelligence ears but coming to this point that there are some nut cases and extremist organizations in Pakistan like this Jesse Mohammed the militia they buy other kind of nut cases as well you do have them but people you have to understand that the this militant mindset began with the Americans wanting to flood the Muslim world places like Pakistan and Saudi especially Pakistan with this to support this idea to
support the Mujahideen fighting Russia during the Afghan Russia wall in the from the early 80s right through and Pakistan partook in that now so there was like a full green flag on you can do whatever you want and there was CIA funding now you can read one no I'm Chomsky writes about the war on terror that the CIA have a key role in the creation of this extremist kind of jihadi now the problem is that look they've been creating them and supporting them that that happened then
there was the 90s where they were flourishing and then there's been the crackdown following 9/11 but look extremists that have been living like this and growing up and investing in Pakistan for at least three decades you can't to eradicate them overnight is very hard it's gonna be very difficult because these are people who are so rooted in that country so it is gonna take time right so I do you agree that this is a problem it is a virus in Pakistan but I do believe that Imran Khan and other people are trying to approve them but it is gonna
take time because it's taken decades for them to take root right so this is something that we have to be fair about and as some Indians did ask me some people only some that look how come you're not condemning I do condemn JJ Mohammed I do condemn these organizations but look let's just be feared that look they this if you these extremist organizations have to be condemned everywhere what about India look what about the more the administration the Modi Prime Minister Modi was a part of who he wasn't a
member of Shiv Sena Shiv Sena is the equivalent of Jay Z Mohammed in fact Sena means army which is what Josh means and JJ Mohammed the army of Mohammed but the army of Shiv of you know of Shiva not the point is that Shiv Sena is an extremist right-wing fascist organization that hates Muslims he was a part of that he was part of the cover-up of the Gujarat massacre that happened when they butchered Muslims since he's been in power situation in Kashmir has deteriorated cash mean what's happening there is terrorism the army imposing
political for political gains imposing they kind of might oppressing killing blinding butchering is that not terrorism so that's terrorism so you have to condemn everything you know you could I condemn the terrorism in Pakistan and ie and the extremists but I equally condemn the ones in India you know those like Shiv Sena and these right-wing fascists and saying that any you know that you can't eat beef that oh if you eat beef beef is hamari Mata you know this is our mother the cow for God's sake a cow is
more valuable than a human being that what the hell is that about how can a cow goddamn cow be more valuable than a human being you know like all guy Matta you know and and and this kind of nonsense because in essence Hinduism is meant to be about peace it isn't this kind of right-wing and let's just be let's be free look let's separate Hindutva the right-wing kind of Hindus from Hinduism and some people have been just hating on Hindus non-stop and I I request and I plead to them that look don't do that
please because look Hinduism is based on peace okay that it's not fee to brand all Hindus and start taking the mick out of all Hindus because that is not true they are not like that all Hindus are not you know and some people saying oh you know they drink cow piss and they do this and they do that I saw so many people saying this and I saw people doing the hashtag you know gay hint instead of Jaya Hin and this kind of stuff I condemn it I utterly condemn and I am you know I am like I said I'm proud of how the way Pakistan stood up for and I'm proud that the they they kind of kick you know taught them a lesson but
this is wrong and wrong is wrong you know you can't we cannot condone anything that that is utterly unacceptable like like you know this blanket guilt of all Indians are wrong they're not the administration is not all India and Hindus are not fascist but there is Hindutva which is a fascist the fascist part of Hinduism just as you have Muslim extremists or normal Muslims are not the majority of Muslims so the same way we shouldn't be kind of just mocking I mean not mob in this thing we shouldn't be
attacking the people shouldn't be kind of like attacking Hindus or making slogans against Hindus and and saying oh this and that but against right-wing Hindus fine against the right-wing fascism against the Hindutva against the Shiv Sena against those organizations yes but not against your regular Hindu okay because I'm at the end today you know see nobody really wants people human beings just want to live in peace fundamentally you know if you bring if you get down to the point people just want peace they just want to be left
alone you know Chuck this this poem that I read the other day that John Doe hood he Nick masla hey Jung mas ANCA Halkidiki you know that that war in and of itself is a calamity how can it be the solution to any calamity so these are some things that were kind of bothering me and I wanted to say and I understand that you know in India and I feel for Indian Muslims because in India Indian Muslims have no freedom when it comes to anything the governments do
like they can't be critic and ever if it's to do with Pakistan in the equation they have to at all times be anti Pakistan otherwise they get lynched you know they it's not like it's not just about sucking up you know I Indian they don't do this just to just suck up but they do this because they will be attacked they will be you know there isn't a the people just got mad you know I saw the the Indian politician the Muslim who I follow him sometimes on social media
what's his name from the Owaisi brothers the but the elder the brother from Hyderabad who has his own Muslim party in India and I saw how he was being very unnecessarily critical towards Pakistan and I understand obviously he's Indian and he's not Pakistani and he can be but he has to be because he's a Muslim and he's got a beard and he's wears a heart and if he and he's a politician and if he doesn't appear to be anti Pakistan the Indians will lynch him the Hindus the the right wing and then they will just incite the mob and
it's a sad state of affairs Allah and I do feel a male Loughran to ease to all these people and may Allah seriously allow I mean may Allah facilitate for the right-wing fascists to be removed in places like India and for them to enjoy the secular freedoms that they have in the secular state that they have army but much love to everybody I just wanted to say that look on both sides and even the Indian army look I I don't have anything against the Indian army I pass a person and I respect them and they
just your common person that are being forced to kind of like go out to war and a lot of them are suffering they are low caste people put forward to go forth and just die and they don't want him they're not even equipped properly but the soldiers this comes back to my question that I said earlier on soldiers are always exploited people this is what my problem with armies as a whole that are that they are usually exploited for the you know to fill the pockets of rich politicians and the people who suffer in the end are the families who lose
soldiers you know the mother that has to very hurt her son and things like this and this is all politics at the end of the day and so even though in this scenario I am very grateful to the very proud of the Pakistani army for defending the soil and for defending their right as a sovereign state and I am proud of them but in general globally just speaking on you know detached from that topic that the armies of the world this is what they do they just pawns and people exploit them so right okay right
whoa whoa let's take a few questions right I'd been asked a question that is the abrogation in the Quran and then I'll try to actually people sorry before I get distracted let's deal quickly with the hospital hint topic right so people have asked me there are because it's relevant to what I've just been saying that there are certain Haditha speak of India and that towards the end of time Muslims will
conquer India is this true and this is known as the hospital hint kind of prophecies and there's so many hadith of them so many about things like Hospital hint that some scholars have said that you could compile an entire book just based on all of these narrations to do with hospital him to do with the battle against India now I want to clarify first straightaway there is not a single sahi hadith on the Battle of India there
is no such thing it is very it is not from the prophet salallahu alayhi wasalam these things were fabricated and made of later on there is no and you've got to understand that these were used as political ploys okay to kind of strengthen people's calls now most likely I think that the first one may that these kind of may have first appeared to support the Umayyad campaign into India so when had judge apne Yusef
Asaka fee had commissioned Muhammad ignore Qasim to go and launch an attack on an India which is Sindh remember that whole thing was him now in my in my understanding that's when these hadith would have probably been fabricated to say that you know the Prophet said that these this army will be supported that attacks India and fights against India all of these hadith are baseless most of these hadith really are transmitted through Abu Hurairah Rohde Allah on through utterly weak
and unacceptable chains now there is they try to say one chain and that they try to base it on is that of they try to say Thorburn who was the servant of the prophet that his chain is right reliable this is what some people try to say and it's in the muslims of ahmed and it's in nursery and things like this now this chain reads that hadith honorable mother who says her death in about a year from after her death an hour after lightness early medieval leaders of AD and Mohammad Ivanova
leaders of AD and rachmaninov nominal rossabi and I'm still alive nati Alba sorry Abdullah daddy I'm so burned the servant of the prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam that he said that two groups of people from my ummah allah will preserve them from the Hellfire one group who fights India or Hindustan and the land of hint and the other who fights with Jesus and you can see why this hadith is totally fabricated because there isn't a single hadith about the second coming of Jesus that is
authentic but put that aside this is what they say is the strongest chain now first of all it comes in the sight in other books and and when it's transmitted in many of the places it's odd he says and the first the key person that emerges first of all is Bucky ignore relief who is utterly unacceptable if he says and because he is known as a major with the list who would do it at least from weak people in fact they even say Colonel I am in Haditha baqia that's actually one of the poem and the the Mohideen would write
that beware of the hadith of bhatia he's in the chain but even when he saves hadith honor as he says here I still wouldn't accept his narration but that said those who want to accept him the next problem is that our criminal elite as ready in this chain he is unknown we don't know who he is but people will say people will say oh but there's another person with him Abdul Agnes I'll him and him see who's also narrating this but then let's go on this all of these narrations come
through one person from Thorburn it's coming through one person right it's restricted through him and that is Locke man in armor and wasabi right so look man in the army now he is somebody who is not a reliable narrator he has been by some people he's been placed as he's just about kind of okay so even Roger says he's a Duke from the thalita from a kind of lower category as in his Sudoku is somebody we think you know in and of
himself is a truthful person but is he reliable because being truthful it doesn't mean you have a good memory it doesn't mean that you're good at transmitting things but in and of yourself you're a truthful person that's why I've not had your says now when a truthful person is doing even though some people did say he's there I accept that but even a Hajer says he's just a Duke and some people like about him says okay we can write what he says but when he has to follow route so this means this rewire only rests on him how can it be accepted
so that's part of the problem that we've got here now and you've got people and so even people by the way in case somebody's gonna question with you we can I find things like this so even as they're happy the state that in his mock letter he writes at the truth of the solute of somebody who's described as a Luke histor Feraud is not acceptable okay so okay I'm no I'm no blagging you know this one this one the other man are saying this
right so that and then this this thing to do with India do you find a lot of hadith speaking of the black flags that there will be this army of black flags and I know Isis try to use this as well and I know the Taliban tried to use this as well and it says that there will be an army of black flags from my Ummah that will come from Horus on which is like the east and it was part of like Afghanistan or that part of the world was called Horus on now people say oh what about there isn't a single hadith that is sorry to do with the black flags
okay in fact chef hat him and honey the Saudi scholar has an entire article dedicated to this where he goes through all of them highlighting that they're highlighting that there isn't a single sahih hadith here okay on the black flags people like Cher as we're ELISA has also written on this highlighting there are no sorry hadith on the black flags and other people have and this people was a propaganda that emerged most likely with the rise of the Abbasids because the Abbasids when they came to
take over the Umayyads in and the uprising in the year 131 Hijri they came from horace on and they came with black flags and and they first calif the Madi right like so you see and what what did the hadith say oh when you see a part of my Ummah coming from Horace on carrying the black flags and that will be the Imam that will be your Imam and his name will be the mati how bloody convenient this was pure
politics people the Abbasids the Abbasids were using this to overthrow the owe millions and just it was just a propaganda that's all it was hassan yusuf who says hey bro love from india much love right vaca-oom on there is not so coming back to this topic there is not a single hadith people about fighting India or fighting hint okay this versatile hand is Bartle okay there is no sahih hadith and I'll ask people I can challenge them to bring this aji that is sahib I as in
uncritically sorry not just oh we wanted to be sorry because I'm taking picking and choosing as in it cannot be criticized okay right so you bring that this is not true so people and this is why Imam Ahmed even humble says look and this is the wisdom Imam Ahmed just bring these hadith but the hadith he brings in is Muslims are not sorry he writes that and he himself says three topics have no basis to them and I want you to take this into consideration people what are these three topics that have no three
chapters as in three books he says he says that these three categories have no basis to them lace ilaha or soon one is al maja see the battles led by the Prophet he says these have no Sood you know when these people speak of the battles of the Prophet imam ahmed is telling you that these things yes there's many hadith but they 99% of it is all weak and made up right so but we you know people may take them as stories and things like that and
he said Malak you know these kind of oh that will be to do with the end of times and things like what will happen the battles at the end of time all this would jesus comes in that the Mahdi fighting India Hospital hand all of these la jolla they don't have no sued and the third Tufts ear tufts ear of the Quran people much of the top seed in hadith that you have is actually baseless that reaches as much of the tough see from Hadi right it's actually just made up and this is imam ahmed teaching us this but
yet people don't take this you know imam i might say is things like this because they all you know when it's convenient they will just turn a blind eye in my mohammed said money dial each man for work are they this is from him a madman money dial each map for what kathy whosoever claims that there is a consensus is a liar and people just turn away they don't want to know imam ahmed says these three lace at Lahore soon Alma vazhi al Maleh he might have seen people turn away see this is selective like because we just want to support our
narrative so I just wanted to clarify this that look there is no fight no great war against India the Prophet had never said this okay then there is a debate that did the Arabs even know about India and some people have said that him was referring to Basra in Iraq and other places and but my personal opinion is that I think that the Arabs didn't know about India about hint because traditionally the term hint comes from Sindh okay so people call
India him it was called Hindustan or India from the Indus Valley and sorry the Indus River which is actually the same river okay so the Indus Valley Civilisation is actually the sin civilization and that's what it's actually called in the text so they call it the Hodari to wadi sinned and they call it even in in in Sanskrit and Hindi they will call it the sin kind of civilization not the Indus like in English because of the river Sindh which
is called Indus in English but people kind of like for sin they kind of replaced it into hint and then some people have said yes but they some people consider these to be two sin than him but my research does seemed to show me that they didn't know about India because there was trade between Arabia and India and certain things like chlorophyll another kind of and other things as well like peppers like fullfil and other things did come over from India to Arabia and other things did as well there is a debate
about muhannad the Indian sword is that because of it being made from India and I I am inclined to it is so that's my understanding some people have argued that point that the Arabs didn't even know India existed I I'm pretty sure that they did and definitely after the Prophet they did because and there's some debate about an Indian King even a representative coming and meeting the Prophet there's some debate about that but after the Prophet we know in the Abbasid time for Bayt al-hikma they translated a sanskrit work from and in
fact they called over an indian scholar who's there was a famous workers is it sort of mass something it's but the the point is they translated his son straight work and he then resided there for a while and one of the famous indian doctors actually treated haroon rasheed as well so we definitely know that there was you know there definitely was contact after the prophet's time i believe even before the prophet's time they didn't know of India that's I'm inclined to that so I'm not so convinced by the theory that they had no knowledge of India right although I'm not so sure
that is hind' the name was it named after India so I know like you'll have some of the Companions like the women were named him so the the wife of Abu Sufyan her name is hint is that named after India I'm not so convinced that is because if you look at the general Arab trend they didn't used to name people after countries like I mean foreign car I mean ancient countries like they won't do that generally as far as I'm aware maybe somebody here watching this has more and they can let me know about that but cool I thought I'd share that that there
is no authenticity on the hospital hint so we don't need to kind of beat the drums and say that there's gonna be some kind of war again since there isn't people not from a religious perspective totally and absolutely not cool any other interesting points I'm thinking shall we just yeah I think with that shall we call it a night folks it's gone past midnight I was asked right okay one final thing I
was asked about to comment on hadith how do we know the authenticity of hadith and this ties into our Lancer into this and this ties into there's a video another video made by my by one of my diehard deep-down diehard fans Baba Farid Oh Dean Gangu Teli so Gangu Teli has made another video which is called Abu layth versus a hooli and I have to
say people this guy is so obsessed with me he said in one of his posts he wrote this that I have watched almost a hundred I think he wrote a hundred and eighty hours of Abu layth to take our snippets I had to like like avidly I had to like so carefully watch a hundred and eighty hours of me I mean I don't even think I've watched on I honestly seriously I wish I wanna I seriously
want to employ this guy like I wanna I need people like that that watch my recording so carefully so I can tell them to kind of please kind of put together string together different clips this guy is such a keen viewer like his work for me I'll kind of like spray the
very natural meri Bulbul que pase Emilia I can totally not marry Gangu Teli Mallika right so the thing is look this I he's he's obsessed with me there's a student and friend of mine Abu Mohammed right you you may have seen on social media this guy took his photograph from Instagram we he's smoking some seashells something and started ripping into him
as some kind of attack on me and he took up a more obvious my we had made some post about how his journey through faith and how he struggled at some point and and he questioned his faith this whole faith of fearing God and things like this and he abandoned the prayer until he kind of introspected and looked into and then he and then he writes at the end that he then rediscovered his journey to God but this time built on love and then he started to pray and he advised his people to pray but he
ignored that part and he kind of cropped the top section where he abandoned the pray and posted that and said right he said this is the student of a belief I [Music] mean seriously first of all I want to say that is such a loser to be not only stalking me but my friends and students rights firstly that I want to say that secondly look up on wow yeah is not my girlfriend
like he's not like my my wife was up like why are you telling me what he's doing like I you know it's none of my business for God's sake you know how he isn't even on Twitter and this guy goes and posts it on Twitter like a loser and oh and um Wow he's not even on D and how petty can you be and to crop out and then he thinks that somehow getting at me you know it's like ha ha ha ha like like I'm not in a relationship with him
because my friend and he's a student but so what what he does you know he's smoking shisha like I give a damn I mean smoking shisha is not Haram anyway but I mean so what I mean what are you like his dad you know this is how petty these people become so right so he has been watching like 180 hours of mine recently and he made this clip and he put it on Twitter that's his tweet that guys don't let this go in vain I spent a hundred and eighty hours watching Abu layth to make
this so I want you to like make a fake profile and ask him you know because some people have been saying oh mostly could you put together some clips of yours when you're doing this or when you're cracking jokes or when you're reading poetry for example somebody asked me can you put all these clips together and I thought I've asked some people but that's so hard and and I want to ask him now I've gotta make a fake profile to say yeah my that Abu layth guy you know what will really do him over if you make a clip of all his
poetry clips yeah man yeah seriously this guy is such a loser Gangu Teli but anyway so he makes this won't clip saying Abu layth vs. Abu layth and ha and so so many so few people sent it to me so I'm like ah go on then what the hell is this guy gotta say and that must be his joy that yes so he begins it by some kind of story about M&Ms or something which I totally couldn't get honestly I obviously did not get the relevance of that story
about somebody eat said eaten mmm but don't eat the red one but then somebody said don't eat the green one somebody said don't eat the I don't know the brown one and so yeah I hate to be saying honestly I hate it hurts me more than he hurts you to say this that you need to stop watching me you need to stop I can't believe I would ever say that to someone but do you need to stop watching me because your obsession levels are through the roof man like your story doesn't even make any sense
I have no idea what you're talking about and then he goes on to say well Abu layth will refute himself so what he does is he he plays my clip of the video of the age of Aisha and then he's trying to refute my points using me my clips from other segments so first of all before I answer this so he's saying that you're criticizing a narrator here sorry you're using a narration from this narrator here from like let's say au revoir or even at your age or Zoe but over there you're criticizing Arwa and
niblet your age and Zuri ha ha so first of all before I even answer I want to say what are you even arguing for let's just take a breather you're arguing for the argument that the Prophet married a six-year-old kid that's your argument yeah and what am i arguing in that video that that's not true that's nonsense so all these people cheering him up this is what you're arguing for I mean you can believe that if you want I find it
disgusting and so disappointing that you would hold the Prophet in such low esteem to say he looked at a six-year-old kid and said yeah I'll mark I'll take her as a bride but even if I wait three years to have sex I think that's so disgusting and blasphemous and disrespectful towards our Prophet I've said that that's nonsense and only I don't care what the people in the past bought it for whatever reason it's not true and it's based on weak fabricated narrations now but this is what you're arguing for
I'll also remind you that I've played this in the past these are the same people for it Gangu Teli and his and at all and he's kind of group in that video which I played on two occasions where they say and it's on YouTube where they say that so what if the Prophet was sexually impotent yes so the Prophet he doesn't for the Prophet to be sexually capable that's not a condition of nabuwa he can be impotent these these are the people this is the Wahhabi mindset that they've got how they hold the the you know the Prophet in their mind that this
is the regard that they have towards him in the consideration and respect and reparation so the reverence so if that's your attitude towards the Prophet you know like what do we expect from people like you we're not gonna expect there's no hope mate so okay put that aside now I'll answer your questions right look when I've answered this before and I'll repeat it again that look when we look at hadith in the past how can we believe Islam is for all times do we agree let's let's
take this step by step briefly step one do we believe that Islam is for all times yes we do take do we believe that we can access the information about Islam in all times access it meaningfully we can access it tick now here there's a problem the hadith that we have today how do we know these hadith are true this is a question yeah this is a question now some people will answer this by saying oh that's easy we will
look at the chains hmm okay point the problem here so when you say this okay go to the next checkpoint the problem here is that okay we look at the chain how we verify the chain through the books of Rijal that say that do like CRB checks on these view this narrator week this norito reliable this marita problematic or okay problem number one is this a ton of opinions on each narrator somebody's saying is okay somebody saying is utterly unacceptable okay so you know in
madness is saying a ways it's my lib no a ways is unacceptable Behati saying is okay so this you've got problems okay so different like utter clash a yes and a no from different people on most narrators problem number one problem number two is even if let's just take the fact somebody says oh he was okay he's he had a good memory the question is the bigger question is how do we know that that was true because these people that are saying it didn't actually ever
meet him so even if imam Buhari said let's say imam Buhari said that ottawa had an amazing memory let's just take that as a point but Imam Hadi never met or wa and he wouldn't have known anybody that directly knew or wa so him vouching for him hmm how is that equally meaningful for us today so how because let's just be transparent because remember most these people didn't ever meet the people they were
speaking about most the people they're speaking about the majority they never ever met them in their lifetimes ever like they they had long died before them so the question is well how did they know they were truthful well you'll say well I'm sure their teachers would have told them and they teachers got it from their teachers who got it from somebody who would have known him possibly I agree that's the theory but we don't know because we don't have those names we don't they haven't told us that that is our guesswork so okay so let's agree on that so the truth is that we have people saying things about people who they
never Eve ever knew personally and they couldn't have met them because they died generations before they were even born so but we take it in some good faith but the problem is now we're going to make judgments based on this so good faith mm-hmm you know we need to take it with a pinch of salt because it's just good faith at the end of the day so we fall back on the three principles that the scholars of hadith Tortoise and the scholars of Islam that whenever rewire comes to us a hadith it must not clash
with reason now you buy in Alma hole right LEM you buy in Elm are cool Lemieux Holly film and Olli can not go against the Quran and it cannot approve Lemieux not the del Oso Lee cannot approve an Islamic principle once these three are fine then okay now we can take from these people is that if they've said that and we can even take from people who we wouldn't primarily take from so by the first and general preference we will take from people who have been deemed ok now so they've
passed that check people said they were okay but they have to pass these things once they pass all of this fine then we will take from them okay so that's the criteria so when I'm saying that look the age of Aisha why is this problematic because it's see to go against right it seems it goes against reason he clashes that the Prophet would have that if he's a prophet of God why how could a prophet of God be doing something like that be even looking at a girl like that like for marriage who is just a kid that goes
against reason that either he's not a prophet of God then or if he's a prophet of God then he wouldn't be doing things like that so it goes against reason it seems to go against the Quran because the Quran seems to suggest that the women marrying it refers to them as women right that marry the women don't stop the women from my ring you don't refer to little kids and when the Quran is referring even in those ayat that people say are talking about Aisha that they say that Allah says yeah me sir and
Abby that the women of the Prophet where is a 10 year old woman and now they're gonna try and reverse engineer that but people don't refer to little kids as women right so the Quran seems to be going against that understanding the Quran seems to address children as separately it doesn't it doesn't the Quran doesn't even the Quran doesn't even obligate them with salah at that age so a girl that doesn't even have to pray can be making judgments about marriage and you'll say well no she doesn't have to make the general also
its forced upon her and the Quran says Larry can I have a Dean there is no compulsion so it goes again and then it up roots Islamic principles people it approves the principle that marriage needs consent the consent Ribit our Fame and how can a six year old consent and you could say well yeah she can understand well okay can she consent to a transaction can a six year old be be purchasing land no Noreen according to Islamic not not even according to regular common
law six-year-old Congo and purchase land can't purchase a property can't purchase a car can't purchase things because she's just a child oh so she can't comprehend that but she can comprehend marriage so either she's capable and if you say she's capable then why can't she be why why can't she pray she ought to be sinful for not praying them so Allah has an even mandated Salah for her to according to the islamic principle until the age of 10 to some discernment and that's just what prayer that's just like doing
rituals that's not even a complicated thing so yet so when you look at the the principles of like commerce our child cannot conduct commerce on its own a child cannot go to war a child cannot delegate things to other people a child in islam cannot even manage its own finances like be into light let's say there was a certain amount of wealth left for a child let's say like a child was orphaned at the age of 10 or 9 and 9 year old let's take a nine year old and there was wealth left that is not handed over to the child a guardian watches over until they
become barley until they become pubescent and then you test them so long as they don't have any mental defect and then you hand it over to them that's in the Orang and that's an Islamic principle so it goes against this so it's going against the Quran it's going against the reason it's going against the Islamic principles and the great narrative that why the Prophet married anyway because of the years or so yes then we see that these narrators have been problematic as well and I've highlighted that and we show that this
doesn't make any sense an Ottawa so we know that Ottawa was the nephew of Aisha and certain people did try to hurl allegations at I shot a later age saying that she had committed adultery and things like this and before she married the prophet and it makes sense that maybe or WA fabricated or misrepresented or Mis relayed as in when it came to that narration he may be pushed back her age to show that oh but she married the Prophet as a child because he was really fond of Aisha was his aunt and when there were a lot of allegations by
people obviously Muslim generally don't believe that but there were some people at the time we're trying to say our eye shadow meted adultery before she married the Prophet and so on and this is why she knew that Safwan when you know the whole hadith so if when there was the allegation that she had an affair with him but they were saying later on although a likes on rates in the Quran they were saying well how did he know her from before so some people made up stories later on in the generations after the Prophet that oh she must have had an affair with him before she met the Prophet now so Ottowa most likely if
anything may have pushed back her age to kind of to make her seem like what are you talking about she was so young when she married the Prophet how can if she had an affair that's one interpretation I'm not saying that is what happened but that's plausible but the point is that this content is baseless so yes if we find a narration by or wa or image or age or let's say is ovary which complements these three things so let's say you find a narration by image or a Jorah saying there are five solarz in one day is that a problem no it's not
a problem let's say you find a narration brought by these or other people saying that alcohol is haram in Islam is that a problem because they've been criticized no it's not a problem because it complements these three if you find a narration saying something like oh you know there's a virtue in reading the Quran on some fine you can act by it but if you find something that throws the whole character of the Prophet under the bus and they've been criticized then nah this these are not nice my friend so here we stop that and that's
where we stamp things down so I hope that makes sense so these people who say oh but Musti has criticized a lot over here but I sorry used a narration from him here but he's criticized Amina yes I'm not saying that everything just because I do feel that these people have said certain things and they have maybe at times misinformed but it doesn't mean everything they did in their life was misinforming doesn't mean that I mean I would be absurd to assume even the most even if you take the cath lab from the books of Cathay beam those who are tell
highest in duration I'm sure not everything they said in their life was a lie you know if you get a a Cadabra we I don't know Holly that matter any other people puke at their beam and then they say oh here's a hadith Allah Allah Allah Muhammad Rasul Allah doesn't mean that's a lie just because they're light doesn't mean that they have to line everything or misinforming everything so use your common sense for God's sake right so I hope that's some sense to Gangu Teli sup alright guys
other than that it's been an epic evening we've gone on for a while some people just tuning in now Sharmila observer just tuning in now alamos adilyn you can have to catch up with what's been going on if you've got any questions do reach out to me messenger facebook Messenger or you can do my the Facebook profile as well the public profile but do like and follow both people I do share messages from both and I almost I was almost about to say you can what's up me you can snapchat me mal 2014 or Facebook
